The official sixth studio album and second full-pop album from Taylor Swift, after the acclaimed "1989" album which elevated Taylor to a global pop-star.

Unlike the previous album, "Reputation" is predominantly filled with experimental and dark pop songs instead of traditional poppy ones, this is a risky but known change from other popstars (Rihanna, Gaga, Miley, Madonna, etc), and Taylor does it successfully without vanishing her artistic identity. My only complain here is that the album has too many fillers, whereas i can listen to her other albums without skipping any tracks, regardless, "Reputation" is a well crafted pop album which proves Taylor Swift capacity to reinvent herself as a top-tier pop star.

It was always going to be hard to follow-up a career-defining album that became a pop phenomenon ('1989'), but 'Reputation' does an admirable job. The album is nowhere near as instant, bubblegum or accessible as 'Red' or '1989'. Coiuntry-roots are long gone, as Taylor gets lost in a jungle of heavy bass, electronic beats and vocoder.

At times, the production is a bit much and can make the album difficult to listen to in one hit. The tracks do standalone well though on individual listens.

At the time of writing, highlights include 'Getaway Car', 'Ready For It?', 'Look What You Made Me Do', 'I Did Something Bad' and 'End Game'.
